Hi guys, please see attached file below for more info.
So basically the prob is that when I visit a member's profile, it says "hi" even BEFORE the header, so I find it very odd and weird, even tho I edited nothing.
I reverted the template, but nothing happened.
I looked at the header, member_profile and index templates, but nothing fishy and weird there.
Any help please?

In the file member.php, can't you find the "hi"?
No, not at all.
I don't know why this is happening.
I don't think it's somewhere in the member profile template, as the "hi" text is outputted even before the header, so it's very weird.
This is what I found when inspecting the "hi" element from fireg=bug when I go on a member's profile page

Would anyone tell me what to do here?
You can see the hi text is just below the <body> tag. What to do next?
It must be in the template, because upon inspecting the element of member.php?action=profile&uid=1 on your site, it is displayed right after the <body> tag.
Have a look at your member_profile template for your current theme. See if it's there.
In originality, you should see:
<body>
{$header}
But from your source, it also at the same time gives me doubts that it's in there.
Have a look at the XML you imported your theme from. See if the term "hi" is produced anywhere in it. It will give you a better idea of where it may be.
But to make sure it's even the theme, try switching to a different one before you go bounty hunting.
I looked at the XML file. No "hi" anywhere.
I switched to a different theme, it's all good.
Here's my member_profile template:

The "hi" is nowhere to be found.
There was a plugin once that printed "hi" for no reason, could even turn into "hihihihihi", some kind of forgotten debug message - but I do not remember which plugin that was.
See if the "hi" vanishes when you switch the "disable all plugins" setting temporarily.
Let me see about that
Awesome! When I temporarily disable them, the "hi" doesn't appear anymore. Gonna hunt the plugins down now.
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!! IT'S FIXED!
It was the Signature Control plugin which was infected or something, this is solved!
Thanks so much for the help guys and gals!
